A construction worker needs to put a rectangular window in the side of a building he knows from measuring that the top and bottom of the window have a Width of 8bfeet and the sides have a length of 15 feet he also measured one diagonal to be 17 feet what is the length of the other diagonal

length of other diagonal is 17 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Length of rectangular window = 15 feet

Width of rectangular window = 8 feet

Diagonal length = 17 feet

We can also apply Pythagoras theorem to check if it is a diagonal of rectangle or not

i. e 17² = 15² + 8²

or 289 = 225 + 64

or 289 = 289

Hence given diagonal length is the diagonal length of rectangular window.

Diagonals joining opposite vertex of rectangle are equal.

. Since the length of one diagonal is 17 feet.

Therefore length of other diagonal will be 17 feet as well.
